Power Safety Precautions

Power Source
For 115 VAC printers, do not apply more than 127 volts RMS between the supply conductors or between either supply conductor and ground. For 230 VAC printers, do not apply more than 254 volts RMS between the supply conductors or between either supply conductor and ground. Use only the specified power cord and connector. This manual assumes that the reader is a qualified service technician. Plug the three-wire power cord (with grounding prong) into a grounded AC outlet only. If necessary, contact a licensed electrician to install a properly grounded outlet. If the product loses its ground connection, contact with conductive parts may cause an electrical shock. A protective ground connection by way of the grounding conductor in the power cord is essential for safe operation.
Disconnecting Power
Warning Turning the power Off using the power switch does not completely deenergize the printer. You must also disconnect the power cord from the printers Alternating Current (AC) inlet. Disconnect the power cord by pulling the plug, not the cord. Disconnect the power cord in the following cases:

if the power cord or plug is frayed or otherwise damaged, if any liquid or foreign material is spilled into the product, if the printer is exposed to any excess moisture, if the printer is dropped or damaged, if you suspect that the product needs servicing or repair, whenever you clean the product.
Electrostatic Discharge Precautions

Some semiconductor components, and the respective sub-assemblies that contain them, are vulnerable to damage by Electrostatic Discharge (ESD). These components include Integrated Circuits (ICs), Large-Scale Integrated circuits (LSIs), field-effect transistors, and other semiconductor chip components. The following techniques will reduce the occurrence of component damage caused by static electricity. Be sure the power is Off to the chassis or circuit board, and observe all other safety precautions.
Immediately before handling any semiconductor components assemblies, drain the electrostatic charge from your body. This can be accomplished by touching an earth ground source or by wearing a wrist strap device connected to an earth ground source. Wearing a wrist strap will also prevent accumulation of additional bodily static charges. Be sure to remove the wrist strap before applying power to the unit under test to avoid potential shock. After removing a static sensitive assembly from its anti-static bag, place it on a grounded conductive surface. If the anti-static bag is conductive, you may ground the bag and use it as a conductive surface. Do not use freon-propelled chemicals. These can generate electrical charges sufficient to damage some devices. Do not remove a replacement component or electrical sub-assembly from its protective package until you are ready to install it. Immediately before removing the protective material from the leads of a replacement device, touch the protective material to the chassis or circuit assembly into which the device will be installed. Minimize body motions when handling unpacked replacement devices. Motion such as your clothes brushing together, or lifting a foot from a carpeted floor can generate enough static electricity to damage an electro-statically sensitive device. Handle ICs and Erasable Programmable Read-Only Memories (EPROMs) carefully to avoid bending pins. Pay attention to the direction of parts when mounting or inserting them on Printed Circuit Boards (PCBs).

Phaser 3600 Operational Overview

Summary of the Printing Process
The Phaser 3600 Laser Printer is a desktop monochrome laser printer, applying the principals of an electrophotographic system to place a monochrome image onto the print media. The system contains a drum and developing unit which places the toner image onto print media producing monochrome prints through the transfer unit. The printing process is composed of the following: Charging: The charge roller is negatively charged at approximately -1400 VDC by the high voltage power supply (HVPS). The charge roller is kept in contact with the drum surface to provide a uniform negative charge of approximately -800 VDC on the drum surface as it rotates at a constant speed. Exposure: The Laser Scan Unit (LSU) emits laser beams in response to image data from the Main board. The laser beams are directed onto the drum surface through a system of mirrors and lenses. A rotating polygonal mirror causes the laser beams to scan the drum surface from end to end (axially) as it rotates. The beams are turned on to print a pixel and off when no printing is required. The negative charge on the drum surface is reduced to approximately -250 VDC at each point where the energized laser beam strikes, to form an invisible electrostatic latent image on the drum surface. Development: Negatively charged toner particles from the toner hopper are applied to the supply roller and are then applied to the developer roller in a even layer controlled by the metering blade. The developer roller turns against the drum and the toner particles are attracted to the relatively positive latent image. The toner forms a visible image on the drum surface. Pre-Clean: The pre-transfer Lamp exposes the developed surface of the drum lowering the surface potential and thereby providing enhanced transfer efficiency. Transfer: The finished toner image on the drum is transferred onto the print media using the voltage supplied by the Transfer Roller. The conductive Transfer Roller receives a high positive voltage (approximately +1000 VDC) from the HVPS that puts it at a higher potential than the drum. Since the Transfer Roller is located behind the print media, the toner image is attracted to the high potential and deposits on the surface of the print media. Fixing: The finished toner image is impermanent and easily smeared. To fix the image, the print media goes through the Fuser where it passes between a pressure roller and the Heat Roller. The toner is fused onto the print media by the combination of heat and pressure. The Heat Roller is heated by a heat element. The roller surface temperature is detected by a Thermistor. The information is fed back to the heater control to maintain a surface temperature of 185 C during printing and 145 C during standby. If the thermostats detect a Fuser overheat condition, it disconnects AC power to the Fuser. Cleaning: After the image is transferred to the print media, a cleaning blade inside the cartridge removes any remaining toner particles from the drum.

Media that meets printer specifications can be fed from Tray1 (MPT) and Tray 2, or the Optional Tray 3. If you use thick paper with a weight of more than 105 gsm (60 lbs), you must insert the paper into Tray 1 (MPT) and select the paper type. Paper will exit the printer to the face down top tray. A door at the rear of the printer provides access for jam clearance. All major components of the printer are explained in greater detail under Printer Controls on page 2-10.

Theory of Operation
Duplex Paper Path

When 2-sided printing is selected, side two is printed first, the image being printed is the first image. After the first image prints, the paper is reversed and is fed through the duplexer and back up to the feed roller with side one positioned for printing with the second image.
Paper Feed Sequence

When the Main Board is ready to feed paper, it energizes the paper feed solenoid. The solenoid armature releases the clutch and the Pick-Up Roller makes one revolution. This drives the paper to the Feed Roller and the Retard Roller. The Feed Roller and Retard Roller drive the paper to the Registration Assembly, which in turn drives the paper towards the transfer area. Before arriving at the transfer area, the paper actuates the Feed Sensor.
Paper Transport
The Registration Assembly continues to drive the paper into the transfer area, where the image is transferred from the drum to the paper. After the image transfers, the paper continues to the Fuser Assembly for the fusing the process. In the Fuser Assembly, the Heat Roller is heated by a heat element and the paper passes in between the Heat Roller and the pressure roller, where toner melts onto the paper to form a permanent image. The temperature of the heat roller is monitored by a Thermistor that sends signals to the Main Board. The Fuser Assembly drives the paper into the Exit Rollers, which drive the paper into the output tray. When printing the first side of a duplex print job, the drive direction is reversed when the Exit Sensor is actuated. Paper is then directed into the Duplex Unit for printing on the second side.
Paper Feed Drive

The drive for all rollers is provided by the Main Drive Motor and a series of drive gears. The Main Motor is used for paper feed, fusing, and the duplex/exit roller reversal for 2-sided printing. When the main motor turns, all the paper path components also turn except the Pick-Up Roller. The Pick-Up Roller assembly moves the paper along the path with the Feed Solenoid. There is a separate Developer Motor for the Print Cartridge.

The print engine assemblies include the following:

Image Processing and the Main Board Laser Scan Unit Main Drive Assembly Feed assembly Process and Components Transfer Roller Assembly Fuser Assembly
Image Processing Assembly and Main Board

The Main Board receives image data from the host computer, converts it to a bitmap image, and then transfers the image to the Laser Scan Unit (LSU). The Main Board combines the Image Processor and Engine Control functions. It contains a 32 bit RISC processor and comes with a standard memory capacity of 64 Mbytes of RAM and 4 Mbytes of flash memory. The board provides one expansion slot that allows available memory to be expanded up to 512 Mbytes with two 256Mbyte RAM DIMM.

Theory of Operation
Laser Scan Unit (LSU)

The Laser Scan Unit (LSU) is the core element of the image production process. The LSU receives video data from the controller on the Main Board and converts the data to an electrostatic latent image on the OPC (Organic Photo Conductor) drum. The laser beam exposes the OPC drum under direction of the controller. The controller also turns the drum synchronously with a polygon mirror within the LSU. The OPC drum also turns in relation to the speed of the paper feed process. An /HSYNC signal is created when the laser beam from LSU reaches the end of a polygon mirror, and the signal is sent to the controller. The controller detects the /HSYNC signal to adjust the vertical line of the image on paper. That is, after the controller detects the /HSYNC signal, the image data is sent to the LSU to adjust the left margin of the media.
Motor Drive Assemblies

The Motor Drive Assemblies include the Main Motor and the Developing Motor. Under control of the Main Board, the Main Motor Drive is a power delivery unit. Through a series of gears, it supplies the power to the paper feed components, the fusing unit, and the distributing unit. For the duplex process, the Main Motor energizes a solenoid to change paper direction. By gearing, the main motor drives the rollers such as Feed Roller, developing roller, fuser roller, and Exit Roller. In addition, a step motor controls the acceleration of the drive gearing. The Developing motor also drives gears that, in turn, drive components used in the image development process.
Feed Assembly Process and Components

The Feed assembly process and components consists of: 1. Separation process Separates the paper from the friction pad mounted to the center of the cassette and applies a Retard Roller which uses a spring clutch. A separate Feed Roller then uses an electronic clutch to control driving power. 2. Center Loading Process A center loading method applies 'friction pad separation, which means that a software process first detects paper (even though there is a paper sensor). After the initial detection, the Paper Size Sensor determines paper size (see Paper Size Sensor on page 2-16). Both the side guide and the rear guide can be adjusted for various types of papers from A5 to legal size paper. The process also includes a paper arranging function and a display function displays the amount of paper remaining. In the front side of the tray, there is a paper level indicator. 3. Paper Pick-up Process Functions include a paper pickup function, paper feeding function, and the removal of electronic static.
2-7
Theory of Operation 4. Miscellaneous Paper Functions A paper arrangement function uses a stopper roller and a weight without an electric actuator. It also includes an additional paper separating function, a driving control function, and a multi feeding prevention function. The Feed Roller transfers paper along the paper path and is also part of jam detection.
Transfer Roller Assembly

The transfer subsystem consists of the Pre-transfer Lamp (PTL) and the Transfer Roller. The PTL exposes the drum surface after the latent image has been developed to lower surface potential of the drum. This provides enhanced transfer efficiency. The Transfer Roller provides a high positive potential on the back of the print media. This potential attracts the negatively charged toner image from the drum and deposits it on the surface of the print media. The transfer voltage is controlled by PWM (Pulse Width Modulation). When the paper enters the Transfer Roller, the resistance value of the Transfer Roller will change due to the surrounding temperature of the printer. If the temperature changes, a new voltage level is created through an AD converter.
Fuser Assembly
The Fuser Assembly contains the entire Fuser Subsystem and is a field replaceable unit. The Fuser Assembly contains the following components:
Heat Element and Heat Roller:Two quartz lamps operate as the heating elements, which generate the heat inside the Heat Roller. The Heat Roller melts the toner so it adheres to the paper. Pressure Roller: Provides pressure on the opposite side of the print media so the Heat Roller can embed the melted toner in the media. Thermistor: Monitors the surface temperature of the Heat Roller. This information is used to control the heat lamp and thus keep the Heat Roller at the correct temperature. Thermostat: Prevents overheat damage when unexpected system faults occur.

Theory of Operation
Duplex and Tray Assemblies

Duplex Assembly
The Optional Duplex Assembly automatically prints on both sides of a sheet of paper. With the Duplex Assembly, the printer can print A4-sized paper up to 26 inches per minute (IPM) and letter-sized paper up to 27 IPM. The duplexer also supports the Oficio and Folio paper sizes. The components of the Duplex unit include a paper transfer function, paper guide function, jam removing function, paper sensing function, and main board supporting function. You can remove a jam at the front of the assembly by merely opening up the cassette and paper guide. To remove a jam in a rear part of the assembly, merely open the rear cover.
Tray 2 and Optional Tray 3 Assemblies

You can increase the paper handling capacity of the printer by installing Tray 2 or an optional Tray 3. Each tray holds 500 sheets of paper (Cassette is same size as the Tray1 (MPT). Each tray includes a separate driving mechanism with the following features:

Feeding Method : Cassette Type Feeding Standard : Center Loading Feeding Capacity : Cassette 500 Sheets(75g/ , 20lb Paper Standard) Paper Detecting Sensor : Photo Sensor Paper Size Sensor : Yes
2-9
Theory of Operation
Printer Controls
Paper Size Control
The paper size selection for Tray 2 and Tray 3 is set by moving the paper guide in the tray. This in turn sets the plastic fingers on the side of the paper tray to a specific postion.The position of the fingers activates the correct combination of the three paper size switches, located in each paper tray slot, for the selected paper size. Additionally, the back of the tray must be pulled down in order to select the two largest sizes; US Folio and Legal. Not all sizes can be used in both trays. See Media and Tray Specifications on page 10 for a complete listing of the media types for each tray. Additional media types can be used in Tray 1 (MPT). After inserting the media in Tray 1, use the Control Panel controls to select the media type.

Automatic Paper Pick Control

The default paper pick selection at power ON is Tray 2, Auto-Select ON is also default. If the default tray is empty, the printer will automatically switch to any other tray that contains paper unless Auto-Select is set to OFF.
2-10
Theory of Operation
Laser Scan Unit (LSU) Control

The Laser Scan Unit receives the bit-mapped image data from the Main Board and uses that information to turn the laser beam on and off as required to correctly expose the drum. Image data transfer from the Main Board is controlled by a synchronization signal from the LSU so the vertical scanning line is synchronized with the printed page. The LSU contains the following components:

Laser Diodes: Generates the laser beams. Rotating Polygon Mirror: Scans the laser beam across the drum, axially. Beam Detector: Synchronizes the left margin. Optical Lens System: Focuses the laser beam onto the surface of the drum. Mirrors: Reflect the laser beam onto the surface of the drum.
Laser Light Intensity Control

Image data is transmitted to the laser diode in the Laser Scan Unit as digital signals. The laser diode converts the image data from digital signals to optical signals; data expressed by blinking laser beams. The Laser Scan Unit monitors the output to determine if variations in the light intensity from the laser beam, variations in the optical system (such as mirrors and lenses), or variations in drum sensitivity are preventing the system from obtaining a proper electrostatic image and, if necessary, adjusts the light intensity to attain a stable electrostatic image. Error Polygon Motor Error Hsync Error Description The polygon motor speed cannot obtain a steady state. Error Message Laser Failure
The polygon motor speed is steady, Laser Failure but the Hsync signal is not generated.
Toner Control
Print Cartridge installation and Toner Level are detected by the Print Cartridge Interconnect Board and the associated signals are supplied to the Main Board. The CRUM not only detects cartridge presence, it also determines whether it is a genuine Xerox cartridge. When the toner remaining falls to 15%, the printer displays a low toner message on the Control Panel display.
2-11
Theory of Operation
Fuser Temperature Control

During Fuser temperature control the printers target temperature is set. The Heat Roller surface temperature is controlled to match the target temperature by turning the heat element ON/OFF. The Heat Roller surface temperature is detected by a Thermistor. If the Thermistor shows that the temperature is higher than the target, the heat element is turned OFF. If the detection result is low, the heater lamp is turned ON. The fuser control circuit keeps the Fuser temperature at 185 C during printing and at 145 C during standby.
When the power voltage for the printer is too high or too low, the Fuser is stopped to protect the Fuser. When the AC voltage is not applied to the Fuser control circuit, the fuser will not work and a Fuser Low Heat Error will occur. When the temperature of the Fuser is too high, an Engine Overheat error occurs if the cooling operation is insufficient Description When warming up, the Fuser has been lower than 60 degrees C for over 35 seconds. Error Message Fuser Failure
Error Open Heat Error

Theory of Operation
Sensor Functions
Sensor Types
The types of sensors used vary with function. In general, there are three types in use:
Photo Sensors
Two types of photo sensors are used, photo-reflective and photo-receptive. Photo-reflective sensors use light reflected back from an object to detect its presence. Photo-receptive sensors use an actuator or the object itself to block the light path to detect an object or condition. Photo-reflective sensors have the light emitter and light receiver aligned on a single surface. Output of the photo-receptor is High (> +4.5 V) when light is being reflected back and Low (< +.3 V) when it isnt. Photo-receptive sensors consist of a LED in one arm of a U-shaped holder, and a photo-transistor in the other arm. When the sensing area is vacant, nothing is between the arms of the sensor, light falls on the photo-receptor sending the signal High. If the light is interrupted, the photo-transistor goes Low.

Theory of Operation
Microswitches
Microswitches are used primarily as paper size sensors and cover interlocks. They are in a normally open state, and close when actuated. A bank of microswitches is used to detect paper size in the universal trays. Microswitches also employ hooks or catches for retention in the bracket or frame.

Paper Tray Empty Sensor

Media supply is monitored by the Paper Tray Empty Sensor. When any paper tray runs out of paper, the sensor will send a signal to the Main Board, the control panel LED will blink red, and the message will display on the control panel identifying which tray No Paper in Tray {2|3} is empty.
Tray 1 (MPT) Paper Empty Sensor

The Tray 1 (MPT) paper empty sensors monitors paper from Tray 1. If Tray 1 is selected and no paper is available, a message appears on the control panel. If there is no paper in Tray 2 or Tray 3 and the printer is in auto-select mode, the printer will look for paper in all the trays and report No Paper in Tray 1.
Tray 1 (MPT) Feed Sensor

The Tray 1 (MPT) Feed Sensor has two purposes. First, it monitors paper movement. If the paper takes too long getting to the sensor, or it stays at the sensor location too long, the Main Board will shut down the machine, the control panel LED will blink red, and a Jam error message will display on the control panel.
2-15
Theory of Operation Secondly, the signal generated by the sensor tells the Main Board that the paper is almost at the transfer area and it is time to start the xerographic process. It is important that the leading edge of the paper enters the transfer area at the same time as the leading edge of the developed image on the drum.
Paper Size Sensor

The Paper Size Sensor detects the presence of paper and monitors a paper size plate consisting of three sensitive metal tabs in the paper path. Depending on the size of the paper, one or more of these tabs will send a signal to the Main Board with the information needed to determine the paper size. For information regarding the paper size combinations, see Paper Size Control on page 2-10.
Outbin Tray Full Sensor

The Outbin Tray Full Sensor detects when the output bin is full and can no longer accept more paper from the exit section of the paper path. When the Main Board detects this sensor, it sends an Output Bin Full message to the control panel.
Fuser Exit Sensor

The Fuser Exit Sensor monitors paper exit and detects the Jam at Exit error if the paper takes too long getting to the sensor, or it stays at the sensor too long. At this point the Main Board will shut down the printer, the Control Panel LED will blink red, and a Jam at Exit error message will display on the Control Panel. The signal from the Fuser Exit Sensor is also used to control paper feed to the Duplex Unit for duplex print jobs.
Cover Open Interlock Switch

The Cover Open Interlock Switch detects whether the top cover is open or closed. When the top cover is open the Close Top Cover message displays on the Control Panel.
Duplex Sensor
The Duplex Unit slides into the rear of the printer above Tray 2. The Main Board senses the presence of the Duplex Unit and paper in the Duplex unit through the Duplex connector. As paper leaves the Fuser Assembly and is picked up by the Exit Rollers, the drive direction is reversed to send the paper into the Duplex Unit. As the paper leaves the Duplex Unit, it activates the Duplex Sensor within the unit. This activates the Feed Roller to position the paper for printing on the second side of the paper.
2-16
Theory of Operation
Power Supplies
High Voltage Power Supply (HVPS)
The HVPS section generates and supplies the following voltages:

Transfer Voltage Charge Voltage Bias Voltage Supply Voltage
The Bias, Supply, and Charge voltages are used by the Print Cartridge. The power distribution section receives AC voltage and creates the required DC outputs (3.3 VDC, 5 VDC, and 24 VDC) to power the printer components. It also supplies AC voltage to the Fuser Assembly.

Theory of Operation
Switching Mode Power Supply (SMPS)

The SMPS is mounted on the bottom of the printer and is the main power source of the entire system. It converts the AC input line into two main output channels: 3.3. volts DC and 24 Volts DC. The SMPS then provides these output channels to various components throughout the system in a switching mode as instructed by the Main Board. The SMPS also drives the AC heater unit, which supplies controlled current levels to the Fuser assembly as an independent module.

Print-Quality Problems Overview Repeating Defects Control Panel (Internal) Test Print Image-Quality Troubleshooting
Chapter
Print-Quality Problems Overview

Image-quality defects can be attributed to printer components, consumables, media, internal software, external software applications, and environmental conditions. To successfully troubleshoot image-quality problems, as many variables as possible must be eliminated. The following guidelines should be used before troubleshooting an imagequality problem:
Use an unopened ream of approved media for evaluating image-quality problems
See the approved media list, Media and Tray Specifications on page 1-10, for media that has been tested and approved for use with the Phaser 3600 Laser Printer.
Print a test page to see if the image-quality problem still exists. See Test 8 in the Diagnostic Test Menu Map on page 3-5. When analyzing a image-quality defect, first determine if the defect is repeating or random. Repeating defects can often be associated with a particular component. Inspect the surfaces of all rollers in the paper path for obvious defects.
5-2
Repeating Defects
Some image-quality problems can be associated with specific assemblies, the most common problems and the associated assemblies are listed below. Also, see the specific image-quality troubleshooting procedure for more information.

Control Panel (Internal) Test Print

A test print is available to aid in determining the quality of output from the printer and to assist in troubleshooting image-quality problem (see Test 8 in the Diagnostic Test Menu Map on page 3-5). Each area of the test print is used for a image-quality parameter. The following pages explain each of the areas and the image-quality parameters. Follow these guidelines when generating the test print:

Use supported paper from a fresh, unopened ream Print five copies of the test print. Discard the first two prints and retain the remaining prints for imagequality analysis.
Deletions
Inspect the test print for the presence of deletions or unprinted spots. If these are found, see Repeating Bands, Lines, Marks, or Spots on page 5-22.
5-4
Fusing
Rub the image three times at the indicated points with a soft cloth or tissue. The toner should not lift off of the surface of the print. If the image smears or toner lifts off the image onto the cloth, see Unfused Image on page 5-24.
s3600-080
Resolution
Observe the three resolution check points on several test prints.
Ensure that the 2 pixel horizontal, vertical, and diagonal lines are clear and continuous. The diagonal lines might appear to be narrower than the others. Characters in the text paragraphs should be uniform and equal in density. The halftone patches should be uniform in appearance.
If the image does not meet the criteria, see Light or Undertone Print on page 5-11 or Background Contamination on page 5-15.
5-5
Registration and Skew

Fold the paper from two consecutive test prints in half (first side edge to side edge and then top edge to bottom edge). Observe the fold lines with reference to the crosshairs of the printed target. The fold line should be aligned perpendicular to the target crosshairs and should be within 2.0 mm of the target crosshairs (each line on the target is 1.0 mm). If the image does not meet the criteria, see Skew on page 5-25.

Plug/Jack Diagrams and Designators

This chapter contains the Plug/Jack or Connector Designators, Locators, and wiring diagrams for the print engine and all options. The diagrams following the Plug/Jack table show the P/J (Plug/Jack) and CN (connector) locations on boards in the printer, Optional 550-Sheet Feeder, Duplex Unit, Fax, Copier, and Scanner. Use these illustrations to locate connectors called out in the Troubleshooting procedures presented in Sections 3, 4, and 5. The Plug/Jack and CN locators consist of the P/J Designator Table and the Locator Diagrams.

The P/J column lists the Plug/Jack or CN numbers in numerical order. The Map column provides the map number of the specific areas (i.e., Electrical, Laser Scan Unit...etc.) The Coordinates column lists the diagram coordinates for the location of the connector. The Remarks column provides a brief description of each connection.
1. Locate the P/J connector designator in the first column of the table. 2. With this information, go to the map listed in the second column. 3. Use the coordinates to locate the connection indicated on the map with its P/J designation number.
